Chapter 1685 Jia Heng: He is a complete love brain
…
Shenjing City, Wuying Palace
Jia Heng, the chief minister of the cabinet Qi Kun, the second minister of the cabinet Lin Ruhai, the Minister of War Shi Jie, the minister of military aircraft Shui Rong and others gathered in the palace to discuss the sudden chaos in the south.
Qi Kun thought for a moment, then as if to test it out, he whispered: "King Wei, this year's autumn grain collection, I'm afraid we won't be able to deliver it from the south of the Yangtze River."
Jia Heng's face was as calm as Xuanshui's, and he said: "It's summer now, and it's still early for the autumn grain collection. There's no rush. The chaos in the south won't last long, and can be easily eliminated."
Qi Kun nodded. Under his thick eyebrows, his old eyes showed a thoughtful look.
This is the situation laid down by King Wei? Just like the previous deposed and established young emperor.
Qi Kun is also an old political fox with a brilliant mind, and now he fully understands the reason.
Jia Heng turned to look at Lin Ruhai who was standing aside, and asked: "Mr. Lin Ge, how is the progress of the Liaodong immigration issue going on in the past few days?"
Lin Ruhai nodded and said: "Shandong has organized the first batch of 100,000 people to immigrate to Liaodong to live and work in peace and contentment near Liaoyang. The second batch has been assembled recently and is ready to set off."
Under Jia Heng's two sword-shaped eyebrows, his bright eyes flickered, with a look of thought in his eyes, and he said: "The immigrants from Liaodong and the people who originally belonged to our Han Dynasty should recognize their ancestors and return to their clan. The Eight Banners of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties should be encouraged.
Change your surname to a Han surname and blend in with me as a Han man."
Lin Ruhai nodded, softly responded, and said: "I will ask the relevant officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs, Xingwen, Liaodong and other places to supervise this matter."
Jia Heng said: "The integration of the various tribes is very important for the long-term stability of the Han Dynasty. Otherwise, after a few years, the hearts of the various tribes will be shattered, and there will be no guarantee that there will be no surrender and rebellion."
Lin Ruhai was elegant, with a thoughtful look on her fair face, and said, "Zi Yu is right."
Zhao Yi said: "King Wei, the river administration office in Henan came to report that the river needs to be repaired. The governor of Nanhe, Guan Shufang, also came to report and mentioned that Nanhe."
Jia Heng said: "Back then, the Yellow River floods surged and threatened to cause disaster. I led Henan soldiers and horses to rush to repair the dike. Now several years have passed. At the beginning, I had a word with the governor of Nanhe. After a few years, the dike still needs to be repaired."
Rebuild.”
At the beginning, the emergency situation itself was a temporary project. Moreover, even if there was no such thing, the imperial court would allocate money to the Hedao Yamen every year to repair the river.
Just in a blink of an eye, it has been several years since he built river embankments in Henan.
Zhao Yi's bright eyes flickered under his sword-shaped eyebrows, and he cupped his hands and said, "What's the instruction from King Wei?"
Qi Kun looked at this respectful scene and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Now all the civil and military officials in the dynasty are the loyal followers of King Wei, Wuying Palace is only King Wei's voice, and the cabinet military aircraft are the puppets of King Wei. Although King Wei does not have the name of an emperor, he has the actual status of an emperor.
Jia Heng said: "When building the river embankment this time, on the one hand, stone and mud can be used as materials to make the river embankment strong, and on the other hand, corruption must be strictly controlled. The Metropolitan Procuratorate has selected inspectors to inspect the censors, keeping the sword hanging in the air, so that
River management officials dare not be corrupted, cannot be corrupted, and do not want to be corrupted. They must spend every tael and every penny spent on river management to the best of their ability.”
With that said, Jia Heng turned to look at the cabinet ministers on the side and said, "Go and invite the General Secretary of the Metropolitan Procuratorate over."
The cabinet official responded, then turned and left.
Jia Heng turned to look at Qi Kun, who had a thoughtful look on his face, and asked: "Mr. Qi Ge, the Ministry of Household Affairs has sufficient money and food reserves?"
Qi Kun said: "If it is to renovate the river embankments, it will need to allocate about one million taels, and the Ministry of Household Affairs can support it. However, although the income has been raised in these years, in the past two years, whether it is the chaos in Bashu or the resettlement of immigrants from Liaodong, the national funds will
The cost is huge. Although the frontier troops were reduced and some military expenditures were saved, the navy still requires a large amount of gold and silver. If one is reduced, the other is more, and there is no difference. Therefore, we must be careful in the future."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "What Mr. Qi Ge said is true. When the chaos in Jiangnan is settled, the imperial court can gain another income."
Confiscating the properties of so many clans, lords and gentry, as well as the belongings of the gentry who became officials, is almost equivalent to destroying their treasury and obtaining gold and silver treasures after the war to destroy the country.
After decades of accumulation by Jiangnan's wealthy families, you can imagine what a huge windfall this was. Whether it was used to bribe generals in the capital or recruit civil servants, they could use it as much as possible.
When Qi Kun heard this, his eyes flickered, and he couldn't help being shocked.
Jia Heng looked indifferent and said: "So, don't worry about money and food. The ill-gotten gains of Jiangnan's rebellious ministers and traitors are stored in the warehouse. They are like guarding dogs, and the court will take them away."
Qi Kun nodded, his expression indifferent, showing no expression at all, but his heart was covered with a thick layer of haze.
Jia Heng then stared at Beijing Wang Shuirong and whispered: "Prince Shui, North Korea and Japan have been keeping a close eye on you recently."
In his future plan for the empire, both Korea and Japan will be reduced to summer.
Shui Rong nodded and asked with concern: "Ziyu thinks there will be unrest in North Korea and Japan?"
Jia Heng said: "Be prepared. Although our country has troops stationed in the two places, in the past few years, the situation in the two countries has been stable and there is no longer the danger of foreign invasion. The lords of the two countries may not be willing to continue to see our troops stationed in the country."
Wang Shuirong of Beijing nodded and said loudly: "What Zi Yu said is that we have to be on guard against them."
After Jia Heng finished explaining the military preparations, he turned to Lin Ruhai and said, "Mr. Lin Ge, how are the arrangements for the new Jinshi now?"
In March of the first year of Qiande, after three questions from Fengming Tower of the Imperial College, the Han court immediately held the Enke Examination.
Because there are other subjects besides Jinshi subjects, about 5,000 candidates took part in the Enke examination, which is much more than the 3,000 candidates in previous years.
Three hundred Jinshi can be admitted. If the Enke examination in the first year of Jianxing is included, the imperial court has admitted a total of 600 Jinshi in the past two years.
Fortunately, the imperial court has been going to Liaodong and quelling the chaos in Shu in recent years, and a lot of official positions have been freed up at the local grassroots level, which is more than enough to accommodate these Jinshi.
Lin Ruhai said: "In addition to selecting common people, the three hundred Jinshi are still in the six ministries to observe the government. They will be sent to local posts next year."
Jia Heng said: "What about those who understand the classics, understand calculations, understand craftsmanship, and understand various subjects?"
Lin Ruhai had a strange look on his face and said, "Some of them don't want to be officials and plan to take the imperial examination again."
Jia Heng said: "It's just that it can't be reversed for a while, but it's not a big deal. As time goes by, the imperial court attaches great importance to officials from other disciplines, and can even select Jiuqing and cabinet ministers. In time, everyone in the world will trust them and use them."
.”
This is just like 985 and 211, and the difference between double first-class and double-class will take some time to be accepted by people.
As long as he also learns from engineers to govern the country, he will be able to turn scholars all over the world.
Lin Ruhai nodded and said nothing else.
Jia Heng turned to look at Liu Zheng, the Minister of Rites, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Liu Ge, in the future, the Imperial College, county schools, and government schools will also set up scientific subjects and establish a long-term training mechanism."
Liu Zheng nodded, with a serious look on his face, and said yes.
After that, Jia Heng talked with Lin Ruhai, Qi Kun and others for a while, and said: "You guys should sort out the government affairs first, and we will talk about other things later."
Lin Ruhai and Qi Kun said yes, and then watched Jia Heng leave.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he left Wuying Hall and walked quickly towards the back of the palace garden.
Palace Garden, Kunning Palace
The Empress of the Song Dynasty wore a vermilion dress with a beautiful cloud bun made of waterfall green silk. She sat on a soft mattress near the Xinuang Pavilion. In a pair of slender hands that were as white as snow, she was looking at herself.
He was holding a needle and thread and was embroidering something. Judging from the style, it must be a man's robe.
Although there were institutions such as the Shangyi Bureau in the palace to supervise the production of robes, Empress Song still wanted to sew them herself to express her feelings for Jia Heng.
At this moment, a young eunuch with a white face and no beard came quickly, entered the Nuan Pavilion, and said softly: "Your Majesty, King Wei is asking for an audience outside the palace."
After hearing this, Empress Song stopped her needlework, looked at the young eunuch with twinkling eyes, and whispered: "Xuan."
After a while, I saw the young man in python clothes entering the Nuan Pavilion from the outside, bowing to the Empress of Song Dynasty, and said loudly: "I have seen the empress, and the empress is a thousand years old."
Empress Song quickly stretched out her hand to help her, her beautiful eyes were moving and charming, and her voice was soft and melodious, and she said: "King Wei, please come down quickly."
"Thank you, empress." Jia Heng thanked her and said in a low voice.
Empress Song's flawless white face carried a slight smile. Under her willow eyebrows, her beautiful eyes flickered and she said, "I'm not busy with anything outside today. How come I have time to come to this palace?"
Jia Heng said: "The cabinet is still worried about the affairs of Southern Province and invited me to come into the palace to discuss important matters."
Under Empress Song's emerald willow-leaf eyebrows, her soft and slightly beautiful eyes were shining brightly, as if there were charming waves, and she said: "Then tell me about it."
Jia Heng said: "There is a fierce rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River, and the momentum is getting stronger. Many officials, gentry, and scholars are rebellious and want to fight against the imperial court."
After hearing this, Empress Song frowned her delicate and handsome brows, looked at the young man in python suit, and said softly: "I don't care what your final decision is, you'd better end this matter as soon as possible, otherwise it will be delayed longer.
, the greater the variability among the ruling and opposition parties.”
Jia Heng agreed: "Yes, wait another half month, Jiangbei Camp and Wei Che should take action to suppress the rebellion."
He also felt that the net was almost closed.
Empress Song nodded, her beautiful eyes filled with water, and said: "You just have to know what's going on. Even if you really want to lure snakes out of their holes, you can't just look at them and see them all."
Jia Heng nodded, walked closer, gently held the beauty's slender catkin, feeling the softness and delicateness of the skin, looked at the beautiful and gorgeous face, and whispered: "You don't have to worry about the situation in Jiangnan.
It was originally planned by me, and whether it was Ye Zhen, the Marquis of Annan, or Cai Quan from Jiangbei Camp, they could suppress it calmly."
Empress Song said softly: "Yesterday, the fourth brother came into the palace to talk and asked about Concubine Rong and Ze'er. I didn't know how to reply for a while."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and asked: "Concubine Rong and Ze'er... are the mother and son at peace lately?"
Empress Song sighed and whispered: "An Fen is fine, but the two of them may not be convinced."
If you miss the throne, how can you avoid greed, anger, and obsession?
Jia Heng's face was expressionless and he said indifferently: "Ignore mother and son for now. When Jiangnan returns to peace, the two of them will naturally feel despair."
He also wanted to see what Concubine Duanrong looked like at that time.
Empress Song said quietly: "After all, we are a family."
Concubine Duanrong and Empress Song have been sisters for many years. Even in the past, there was never any barrier.
But after Chen Ze was deposed, there was a deep gap between the two sisters.
Jia Heng said: "Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, the emperor has no family affairs."
Empress Song said softly, "Hmm", and then nestled her head against Jia Heng's chest.
At this moment, the sunlight outside the window shines quietly on the two of them through the carved windows, as if they were covered with a layer of holy gauze.
Empress Song's face was as bright as the clouds and as rosy as the clouds.
Queen Song said: "Not long ago, Wei'er sent someone to the palace to deliver the news that he had another child. If it is a boy, he wants to adopt the child to his brother and pass on the incense. He wants to go to the palace to discuss it with me.
, and the other one is that he misses me and wants to visit the palace."
As the Empress of the Song Dynasty became the Empress Dowager and her son Chen Luo ascended the throne and proclaimed himself the emperor, Liang Wang Chen Wei became more active and planned to free himself from the current situation of confinement.
Since Chen Wei was placed under house arrest, he indulged in wine and sex. His concubine and wife gradually became pregnant, and this time he was adopted by Wei Wang Chen Ran. On the one hand, the whole brotherhood was established, and on the other hand, he took the opportunity to express his love to Empress Song.
Play the family card to seek freedom.
Jia Heng's eyes flickered, the soft and plump hand in his hand paused, and he said in surprise: "Chen Wei? What is he going to do?"
Queen Song rolled her beautiful eyes at Jia Heng and said angrily: "Just now, you didn't even listen to me?"
He was just being dishonest and didn't listen to her.
Jia Heng said: "There's nothing wrong with the adoption, but Chen Wei... I think it's best for you not to see him now."
"Why?" Queen Song said softly, with her beautiful eyes flowing under her plump eyebrows.
Jia Heng said: "Luo'er is still young, and Chen Wei has not escaped from the Sichuan Rebellion for a long time. His character is still undecided, so he should be locked up for another three to five years."
Empress Song bit her lips and said, "Three to five years, so long?"
"I know you feel sorry for your son." Jia Heng held the beauty's slender hand and said, "But you can't see him until three to five years. Otherwise, if he does something stupid again, no one can save his life by then.
Already."
If Tian Niuer softens her heart, she may let Chen Wei come out again and cause trouble.
When Empress Song heard this, there was a look of struggle in her beautiful eyes, she said softly "Hmm" and nestled her little head in Jia Heng's arms.
She knew what this little fox meant, and she still had to consider Luo'er after all.
While talking, Jia Heng and Queen Song hugged each other for a long time, quietly enjoying the midsummer time.
Until the sun turns westward, a flash of orange appears on the western sky.
Under the reluctant gaze of Queen Song, Jia Heng walked out of the palace garden, thought for a while on the palace road, and planned to visit the eldest princess of Jinyang.
Princess Jinyang's Mansion, Rear Residence
In the study, a young boy with a handsome face was sitting behind the desk, studying with a blue-covered book. It was none other than Jia Heng's eldest son, Jia Jie.
"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is primitive..." Jia Jie's voice was young and clear, with a childishness that made people pity.
Not far away, Lianxue said softly: "Your Highness, this is an official document delivered by the General Affairs Department and the Military Aircraft Department. In the southern provinces, the King of Wu, the King of Lu and others, with the assistance of Hao Jiru and Annan Hou Yezhen, raised the flag of rebellion, and in
There is a huge momentum in the south."
Under the slender eyebrows of the eldest princess of Jinyang, her beautiful eyes were as bright as water, and she whispered: "King Wu? How could he be so virtuous and capable that he dares to rebel in Southern Province?"
The eldest princess of Jinyang naturally knew King Wu. There was not much age difference between the two, so they were considered to be of the same age.
Princess Jinyang asked: "What did Ziyu say?"
A worried look appeared on Lianxue's jade face, and she said softly: "Madam, there is no news from the prince."
The eldest princess of Jinyang said softly: "Send someone to invite you over."
She also wanted to know if there was something hidden in it.
If there is really trouble in the south of the Yangtze River, given the wealth of the south of the Yangtze River, it will easily have a huge impact on the north, and sea trade taxes will also be reduced.
Even if Jiangnan did not make an expedition to the north, and only separated from the Han Dynasty for a few years, the northern Han Dynasty might itself be in chaos first.
Even new places such as Liaodong will be unstable.
Coincidentally, just when Lianxue sent someone to invite Jia Heng, a nanny from outside entered the wing and said: "Your Highness, King Wei is here."
The eldest princess of Jinyang was shocked when she heard this. She quickly looked around and saw the young man in python suit crossing the threshold. The sunset reflected on his face, leaving shadows on both sides of the bridge of his nose, making him look even more grim.
Quiet.
Jia Heng whispered: "Jinyang."
Under the emerald willow brows of the eldest princess of Jinyang, a pair of water-cut autumn eyes flickered, and she whispered: "Just now I told Lianxue to let you come over."
Jia Heng looked at the beauty with a smile and said, "Jinyang, why did you call me here?"
Princess Jinyang said: "Such a big thing happened in Jiangnan. What do you think?"
Jia Hengxing came closer, sat down next to the eldest princess of Jinyang, and said in a low voice: "In just these few days, there will be results over there in the south of the Yangtze River, so don't be impatient."
As he said that, he gently took the slender hand of Princess Jinyang, stared into the soft and beautiful eyes, and said: "Don't worry."
The eldest princess of Jinyang hummed and said: "You should take good care of the external affairs and try to do as little trouble as possible. It will not be too late if there is peace for a few years."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Okay, I know."
Jinyang supported him in seizing Chen Han's kingdom. To put it bluntly, he was full of love brains.
In other words, this kind of love is only for him.
